Free Holiday File from Team KNK! We’re all getting ready for the Holidays – Team KNK wants to help with a Holly & Berries door knob decoration. This can easily be made with heavy cardstock, craft foam, or felt. In the photos, you’ll see I selected stiffened felt (as this medium will endure the longest).
Materials Used:
- 2 sheets 8.5 x 11 Stiffened Felt
- Blue (Thick Materials) Blade
- Use the recommended material settings in your manual
- I used 120 pressure, 200 speed, Multi-cut and 2 chipboard spacers for my KNK Maxx
- Red Pom Poms or Jingle Bells (you can also cut out felt/foam/cardstock for the berries)
- Adhesive
You can cut the bottom layer from a different shade of green than the top layer for added contrast. Any round, red objects can be used for the holly berries. I use the jingle bells because I love hearing the sound when someone opens/closes a door around the holidays. As an added bonus, from a 4-H dog club leader’s perspective, they are a great tool to desensitize dogs against noises. Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the file, Michele. I love door knob decorations and this will be a nice
addition to others I already have. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and keep those
ideas coming. They always inspire us.
Merry Christmas Michelle and thanks for the inspiration. Love the idea. Never tried cutting felt, but this may be my motivation.
Great idea. Thanks for the file and directions Michele.
Thanks, Michelle. This year I put decorations on lots of door knobs. Now I have another design to add. Thanks for the file. Have a wonderful Merry Christmas.
What a cute idea!
Thank you for such a great project. I purchased my Zing for the ability to cut thicker materials—may give this a try today. How did you stiffen the felt? Thank you so very much!
I purchased the felt already stiffened. However, I believe you can stiffen felt with spray starch if you have the time to spray/dry/spray/dry until its ‘ready’.
Very nice, michele
Looks amazing! Thanks Michele!
very nice! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for sharing your idea.
